ReviewWhen hiring Garrett, we knew that we would be in safe hands in this difficult market. Not only is he an exceptional real estate agent but he is a gifted interior designer that became a selling point for us. Garrett was able to incorporate his design expertise in homes that we necessarily would pass up by essentially creating a vision for us that is practical and realistically attainable. Without Garrett, we wouldnt be where we are at today. We recently closed on a home that needs some aEURoeworkaEUR? but we were able to secure this hidden gem UNDER asking with seller credits. He created a vision for us and we are currently working with contractors to make our dream home into a reality. There is no way we would have been able to do this in todays market without him, Aside from his down to earth and energetic personality, Garrett is professional and the absolute BEST in the real estate world. We plan to work with Garrett again and 1000% recommend him! Thanks Garrett!

Review As first-time homebuyers, we were fortunate to have Garrett guide us through the process. His expertise was evident from the start, making the entire home purchase journey seem effortless. What stood out most was Garrett's genuine concern for our needs, ensuring that every question we had was addressedaEUR"whether it pertained to us directly, the process, or involved discussions with the seller. His approach was the perfect blend of professionalism and warmth, making every interaction a pleasure. Garrett's background in interior design proved invaluable, enhancing our decision-making process. He wasnt just focused on making a sale; he was invested in finding a home that resonated with our aspirations and lifestyle. Garrett's proactive approach in identifying suitable alternatives when options seemed scarce was indispensable, especially in a fast-moving market. Additionally, his ability to connect us with reputable local contractors for potential renovations was a significant advantage. Without hesitation, we would work with Garrett againaEUR"he has earned lifelong clients in us.

Review GarrettaEUR|.a true professional and he knows his stuff! I have worked with many agents, both buying and selling, but Garrett was incredibly personable, understood our needs and met our timeline. He is sharp, savvy and most of all, attentive to the details. We would highly recommend Garrett in all your real estate needs. Not everyone has the answers to all your questions, but he made you feel secure that he will go find those answers if he didnt know it. We would highly recommend his services and wouldnt hesitate to use him again in any future transactions. I not only have a real estate broker now, but also a friend. Thank you for this amazing experience, Garrett. You made it seem effortless yet we know how much work you put in behind the scenes. You are appreciated.

Review Garrett has been an amazing agent during my house hunt! He responds in a timely manner and answers any questions I have! Buying a home can be stressful but Garrett was really thorough and walked me through the entire process. He was patient with all my questions and super knowledgeable.

Review First time buying a place and Garrett truly pulled all the stops for me. Super knowledgeable guy and helped me through the entire home-buying journey. He cares about his clients and makes sure that all questions are asked and answered, whether it be from you or with the seller. Super professional yet friendly, and a joy to work with. Knows the 626 area well and isn't in it to just sell you a place, but genuinely cares that you're getting what you are looking for. Would work with him again without a doubt!

Review Garrett is an amazingly knowledgeable real estate agent. It was my first time buying a home and I got a recommendation from a family member to use Garrett as my agent because of his expert knowledge of the San Gabriel Valley area and ability to connect with new home buyers. Garrett far and away exceeded all expectations. He did an excellent job explaining the whole buying process and giving me guidance every step of the way. He helped connect me with the bank to get a great loan rate and worked for me at every step of the process. He also worked extremely hard to make sure everything was in order. This may be the most standard recommendation I can give but with Garrett, you're getting a real estate agent who's done this so many times it is literally boring.

Review Garrett came as a recommendation from a friend who also had her home purchased with Garrett. Being a first time buyer, I had a lot of trepidation in the home buying process but Garrett was reassuring all the way through! Being very familiar with the area I was looking to buy, Garrett was able to guide me through the home buying process relatively quickly. He was also quick to message back whenever I had a question. Garrett was also very pragmatic with helping me make my home buying decisions - he helped me make a decision quickly just before interested rates rose and I'm very glad for it. I definitely recommend Garrett for your San Gabriel Valley home buying experience!

Review Garrett is the best agent around! We have worked with Garrett since 2015. Most recently in 2022 he helped up buy (again). Garrett was there for us, helped us think through everything, and ultimately helped us find and buy the perfect property for us! He is very professional, kind, honest, and has a great sense of humor. In our indecisiveness he was patient and put up with us kindly. We are grateful for finding an amazing agent like Garrett and would recommend him to all our friends.

As a first time home buyer I had a lot of questions about everything and Garrett was always so patient and timely with his answers, which really helped demystify everything. He also helped us navigate the market well, negotiate reasonably, and, most importantly, close on our home! On top of all of that, Garrett is so funny and personable! This especially made the entire home-buying journey simply a blast.

Review Worked with Garrett on a recent renovation and sale of a condo in the San Gabriel Valley. He knows the area, knows the business, and gets the work done quickly and for a good price. Great communication skills and keeps you updated regularly so you know what's going on. He's a nice person too which makes things even easier. Exceeded all expectations and I would 100% work with him again if the opportunity comes up in the future.

Review We hired Garrett to help us sell our condo in Alhambra. We don't live in the area so we needed someone who could manage the entire process of getting our place ready to be listed and sold. We trusted him with literally everything, we just handed over the keys and drove away. We needed to renovate pretty extensively and he managed to do it under budget and ahead of schedule! He gave us advice on what to spend money on and what not to worry about. When it came to listing, he came up with a strategy that got us more than 10 offers all over asking. Garrett knows his stuff. He knows what to do when things come up and provides very attentive service. He's very smart, creative and above all, he's a really nice person to work with.

Review Garrett was exactly the real estate professional we needed in helping my wife and I sell our home. Having lived in our home for just shy 33 years it was a challenging decision. Not only was Garrett professional in his presentation he also understood our concerns involved with leaving our long time residence. There was no question too small for Garrett to respond to and he handled ALL details involved with the sale quickly and efficiently, Garrett also helped me connect with two contractors needed to make upgrades in our home. Garrett is the 1 stop real estate shop.thank you, Garrett.

Review Working with Garrett was amazing. He is knowledgeable, empathetic, and patient with his clients. He introduced my spouse and me to areas we weren't familiar with and was always quick and responsive to answer any questions we had. Garrett went above and beyond the call to even be in communication with us even after the sale of the home we bought with any questions we might have. He has a vast network of resources, contacts, and contractors that have been helpful for two new folks to Southern California. We couldn't have landed a more perfect agent for us.

Review Garrett was great to work with in the selling of my home. He is passionate, dedicated and trustworthy. Due to health restrictions, I was not able to prepare my home for sale as I had planned. Garrett stepped in and took complete control in preparing my home for sale. Without his help, I would not have been able to get top dollar. I would definitely recommend Garrett for your future real estate needs.Cheryl

Review House hunting is stressful. But with Garrett as our agent, he made the process much easier. We previously purchased a home with Garrett in 2015 and when it came to time to make another home purchase, we did not hesitate to work with Garrett again. As always, Garrett guided us through every step from visiting properties, negotiating, inspection, and closing. Garrett was extremely patient with our numerous questions and was always communicative. I always felt that he put our needs above everything else. Garrett is an exceptional real estate agent!

Review Garrett was recommended by a Compass broker here in NYC after extensive research. My in-law's' Condo was a wreck. Garrett, handled everything.... Overseeing a gut renovation, inspections, difficult HOA, marketing and the closing. We ended up with many bids within 72 hours of listing and closed within 25 days more than $50,000 over the listing price! Garrett is a seller's dream,,,, (especially an out-of-town owner). His background in interior design, identifying what MUST be done and the ability to stay in budget, is an unbeatable combination. He was always available, even after hours, demanding of the contractor, with meticulous attention to detail and has an artist's eye for aesthetic effect.I have to agree with other reviews: "You will never find another realtor like Garrett. ...(he) makes what could be a stressful experience fun. Undertaking renovations before selling was a breeze with Garrett's guidance and support.""He's a realtor who can deliver efficient results. I highly recommend him for anyone searching for a realtor. He's the best."My only regret is that he is based in LA not NYC!

Review Garrett is amazing!! My husband and I decided to finally make the plunge and buy our first home, and found Garrett through his great reviews. We had a great impression of him immediately. He was friendly, funny, honest and knowledgeable - we just felt as comfortable with him as if we'd already known him for years. As soon as we gave him the go-ahead, Garrett started setting up showings for us. He was super communicative and always on top of things; its clear he knows the business and is super passionate about what he does. Attending showings with him was as fun as it was informative, and we quickly narrowed down what we liked and disliked about our potential first home. We started looking at homes in mid June, had an offer accepted in early July, and got the keys to our first home in early August! We were anticipating months of searching and several rejected offers, but with Garrett, we managed to find an adorable home in our dream location in just a few weeks. I'm honestly still in disbelief. As this was our first time going through this process, there was no end to questions or fears we had - but Garrett was always available to talk through our concerns and never hesitated to make time for us. We couldnt be more grateful!Were planning on living in our new home for a long time, but if we ever need to move, I know well only be working with Garrett. Anyone would be lucky to have him on their team. Thank you Garrett!!

Review Garrett crafted our winning offer, selected amongst very competitive bids in a crazy California sellers market, and right off the back of a global pandemic. As first time home buyers my wife and I didn't have to settle for our second or third choice of home. You shouldn't settle for a second or third choice of realtor, just contact Garrett.

Review I've now worked with Garrett twice and plan to use him again in the future. You will never find another realtor like Garrett. He is available to his clients, meticulous with his work, has a great design eye, and makes what could be a stressful experience fun. He knows the market and my partner and I have come to really trust his guidance. We worked with him as sellers recently and his background in architectural interior design helped us identify what needed to be upgraded while keeping to our budget. Undertaking renovations before selling was a breeze with Garrett's guidance and support. He's a realtor who can deliver efficient results. I highly recommend him for anyone searching for a realtor. He's the best.

Review My partner and I could not have been happier with our experience working with Garrett. After having some less-than-pleasant experiences with other realtors in the past, we were a little nervous about selecting the right person to help us purchase our first single-family house. Garrett had come highly recommended by friends, and he did not disappoint.From the very first introductory phone call, this was an entirely different experience from before. Garrett took the time to get to know us, and made it abundantly clear that he cared about us as individuals as well as clients. No matter how busy he was, he always made lots of time for us, and never made us feel rushed, or like any trivial or even redundant question was unworthy of his thorough attention.Garrett's plentiful and varied skills and strengths make him a powerhouse at his job. He's terrific socially, which makes interacting with him a delight, and this strength seems to be very important for how he can build relationships with other realtors. He's organized and thorough, and was always on top of our laundry list of requests when going through the daunting escrow process. And his background in design and general understanding of construction was incredibly helpful in being able to envision the potential in houses, and in actual planning our remodel when our offer was accepted.To give you a sense of who he is- in a moment of where his design skills and generosity intersected- while we were in escrow, he offered to go furniture shopping with us to help select the right rug and sectional for our new place, and spent a couple hours comparing fabric samples and making sure we got what we wanted. Incredible!Finally, and perhaps most worthy of note (hard to say, with all the appreciation we have for him!)-- in this absolutely insane market, we were able to close on our dream house in LESS THAN two months from the day we first contacted Garrett. A true Los Angeles realty miracle!! While I'd felt very confident in my home searching skills, Garrett had actually suggested the house we ended up buying-- in a San Rafael, Pasadena, a neighborhood I'd never heard of that was outside our Zillow search perimeter, but still in a very central and desirable location.We loved the house and its magical, super private backyard, but naturally, there was a lot of competition for it. With Garrett's guidance, we were able to make an offer that was selected out of 15 competing offers. We were thrilled not have missed out on our own little slice of paradise, and can't wait to move in next week. Our only regret in finding our home so quickly is that it means less time to hang out with our new friend Garrett, but we are looking forward to having him over for a celebratory dinner soon. :-) If you're looking for a phenomenal realtor and a just all-around good person to have in your corner, look no further than Garrett.

Review Garrett is knowledgeable, helpful, and patient... important qualities for a real estate agent, and even more so in this incredibly hot housing market. He has an extensive network and knew nearly every selling broker at all of the houses we toured (and we toured quite a few during our home hunting process!). Having a broker who's so well connected was an incredible boon, not only to get us slotted in for showings, but also to get the necessary advice/info to make our offer as attractive as possible. I can't stress enough how competitive it is to purchase a house in Pasadena right now, and by trusting Garrett to navigate us through the process we were able to find our home! Not only did we find a great house, we also gained a new friend. I highly recommend him!

Review Garrett is an amazing real estate agent. When my wife and I moved to Pasadena from Denver this past year, Garrett came highly recommended, and we can understand why. He knows the Pasadena market and various neighborhoods. He's a good listener and took the time to understand our needs, style and budget. Garrett showed us a number of homes, each time taking note of our likes and dislikes to eventually find us the perfect home. One of the most remarkable things about Garrett is his ability to "envision" the home, making suggestions for remodel ideas, and think through furniture placements and decorating touches. Garrett is honest, polite, knowledgeable and attentive. We could not have asked for more!

Review I would highly recommend Garrett to any one considering selling their home in the Los Angeles area. My wife and I had a great experience with him when it came time to sell our condo in Glendale, CA. Garret truly made us feel like our home was in great hands and proactively communicated with us throughout the entire sales process. Here are some highlights:-Garrett laid out a timetable for getting our house to market and he delivered on that timetable. Our listing was delivered on schedule and he worked hard to make sure all work (staging, etc) was completed efficiently and swiftly.-Garrett's background in design allowed him to make superb recommendations on the small cosmetic fixes that had a huge impact on the marketability of our home. He leveraged his business partners to ensure those fixes were made timely and economically.-He referred a spectacular staging professional who accentuated the positive aspects of our home at a reasonable price.-Our bottom floor unit sold higher than asking price and higher than the unit directly above us on the top floor of our building (it had the same layout and updates).-Garrett made great recommendations for both a 1031 exchange administrator and escrow agent.If you want an agent who is attentive and makes the sales process as easy as possible, you simply cannot go wrong w/listing with Garrett.

Review Garrett Chan is a dream-come-true real estate agent. Our house was on the market for one week and we received 8 offers with most of them well above asking. He's an expert in the San Gabriel Valley and had experience with agents whose client submitted offers which helped during the selling process.A We thought we were at a disadvantage because we had zero cash to prep the house.A Garrett quickly informed us of a program that lends you money (no interest, no fees, no strings attached) to fix and prep the house to get it ready to show. All you have to do is pay back the loan once you sell the house or within a year if you dont sell the house. Garrett has a great network of contractors and was able to work within a tight budget to get the house show ready within a week.A Due to his keen eye and background in interior design, Garrett was able to upgrade the house with new lighting and color schemes which gave our house such a refresh that we joked about keeping it.A We also came in under budget, which we thought never happens.A A On top of all this Garrett has excellent communication skills - available, efficient, easy to talk to and very responsive. Even under the best circumstances selling your house is stressful.A We appreciated him making the process really seamless. We would without a doubt give Garrett Chan and his team a 10/10 recommendation as a real estate agent, interior designer and just a great person overall.Cheers Garrett you rock!

Review Garrett killed it. Hands down best agent we have ever worked with. We were coming off owning two homes in the past (and selling one) where we soured on working with real estate agents. Garrett really showed us for the first time what a hard working, knowledgeable, and professional real estate agent is. He listens carefully to your wants and needs... shocking cause we talk a lot! :) Also his speed of helping us find something was out there - we expected the process to last 6 months and we found something so fast! Even during COVID Garrett shined - which is really something. He has shown us a new way of looking at real estate agents. We are incredibly grateful for his help. - Mike and Vicki

Review Choosing Garrett to put our home on the market was a decision made with confidence based on having worked with him in 2015 as well, and we were not disappointed. In fact, we were very impressed with his vision and plan that produced 6 offers above asking within 5 days on the market and a smooth escrow resulted in closing 8 days early. We made the decision to sell with short notice and Garrett made time for us every step along the way. Our home shown like never before with the beautiful staging professionals he arranged for us. Garrett is dedicated to his clients and represents his clients with incredible professionalism and top notch presentation in every way.

Review I never imagined selling a house (well above asking price) would have been possible during a pandemic. Garrett made this a reality for my family. We were all so impressed by how effective the virtual staging was at creating interest and demand to see the home. After an efficient and swift listing, we received multiple offers above asking, and closed just a few weeks later. Highly recommend Garrett and truly could not have had such a successful sale without him!

Review Garrett articulated his strategy and rationale consistently in selling our mother's house. Without his excellent communication skills we would not have been able to have a good grasp of situations that required our input. Because of this we were very comfortable with his abilities and were able to make informed choices. Not only that, he went above and beyond in helping us deal with the process of selling a house. Although there was some luck involved with regards to selling the house, Garrett's guidance increased the probability of the sale and made the whole thing a lot less painful.

Review Looking for a new home is stressful for many reasons. We knew we wanted to find the right agent to help guide us through the process. After identifying a few agents who all had excellent reviews, we interviewed them in person. Garrett was clearly the best choice and now that we know him, its not surprising that he was also the quickest to respond to our inquiry. He established rapport with us right away and really listened, while at the same time impressing us with his passion, enthusiasm, and intensity, his sense of humor, and his knowledge of the San Gabriel Valley and real estate. He seems to know a lot about everything because he talks to people all day long. The other agents we spoke to were very experienced but they lacked the people skills that Garrett has in abundance. We wanted someone who liked talking to other agents, was a good listener, and would be advantageous to have as a negotiator. Also, we were looking for someone wed want to talk to. Everyone likes Garrett! Garrett was always honest and patient with us, even when we werent really sure what we wanted and when we wanted different things. It took us a few months to find the right place and there were times that we were discouraged, but in the end, we actually found the perfect place after two months of going to open houses. Since we were interested in a hot neighborhood, the house had 7 other bids. The main reason we were able to get the house was that Garrett knew the seller and the seller wanted to work with him. He was able to make our dream a reality. We are extremely impressed with Garretts work ethic and crazy responsiveness. He was up till the wee hours, e.g., 2 AM or later, working. Id send him a text message and he would respond in a few seconds. If I made a comment on the Compass app, hed respond right away. Hes proactive to the extreme and always working hard to stay on top of things for all of his clients. We liked spending time with Garrett, so much so that it feels like the process ended too quickly.

Review After a brief conversation Garrett had a quick understanding of my needs--even things I didn't think about. He had a good knowledge of what was available and quickly had a list of potential properties for review. As an out of state buyer, he had excellent tools (web and mobile phone app) to present and communicate about properties. We were able to quickly narrow down to a short list of properties and within a week I was in town and we visited a dozen properties. Garrett has an excellent understanding of the pros and cons of the various neighborhoods in the SGV. Once I found a property, Garrett provided great advice on my offer to purchase where there were multiple offers. He successfully guided me through a tricky multiple counter offer situation such that I was successful. He not only provided excellent advice regarding the purchase but also referred me to other service providers to assist with my relocation. As an out of state buyer, Garrett had the tools for me to accomplish everything electronically with ease. Throughout the entire process, he was responsive to my phone calls, texts, and emails. I would recommend Garrett without reservation to anyone looking to buy or sell in Pasadena or the SGV. I will be using him again for my next purchase/sale.
